Apolytikion of Longinus The Centurion
Fourth Tone
Thy Martyr, O Lord, in his courageous contest for Thee received the prize of the
crowns of incorruption and life from Thee, our immortal God. For since he possessed
Thy strength, he cast down the tyrants and wholly destroyed the demons'
strengthless presumption. O Christ God, by his prayers, save our souls, since Thou
art merciful.
